Validates the accuracy of the calibrated model on out of sample data.

This function uses the quantity, allocation, and configuration disagreement to validate the model across the landscape using the parameters from the calibrate function. Ideally the model is calibrated with 2 or more years of data and validated for the last year or if you have 6 or more years of data then the model can be validated for the final 2 years.

validate(config_rds_file)

Arguments
